This looks so yummy! I have chickpeas and I don’t know what to do with them! I’ve been pescetarian for 7 years and I want to try be vegan for a week at first to test out some recipes, this one will be great! xoxo

Yum Yum. I made this in a large batch and it reminds me of like a faux tuna salad. I mixed in a scoop of hummas and it is to die for! I can’t get enough. I hand ground my spices and the smell of all of this was incredible.

Delicious!
I made these slightly earlier than needed and had to leave the kitchen to stop myself dipping into the pan!
I added a tsp of palm sugar and a splash of lemon juice just to suit my taste but they were superb without them.
An instant staple in my house 😀
